Aligning Text

I have a table I made with 3 columns and all the CSS is working well but I can't figure out how to do this...

[ Login ]
[ Input ]
[Blah ^]

What I want is the blah text to be centered and then the caret to be right aligned. The text that needs to be right aligned will always stay the same - The test that needs to be centered will usually be different. If anyone knows a workaround using CSS it'd be appreciated! Thanks!

The reason for the caret is an arrow to collapse the center content...Does anyone know how to do that?

What should I use instead of tables? Divs or what? I am using Dreamweaver and am a novice dreamweaver user and have just recently stopped using iframes so any help will be appreciated. You are looking at the right line and I want the caret to the right and powered by centered. Thanks!

Yeah.... well hard to say.... not seeing the entire layout.... or is this the whole page.... just a login... You should write your markup semantically and style those elements w/ css...css drive :: tableless forms

It is the whole page -It's just a login to an admin section...But I want to make a page with a layout similar to this - http://wiredphp.net - And this is just a basic design/color scheme that I plan to use w/ my wholse site. What should I use? And is it safe to store my username/password in a MySQL database unencrypted?
